Gaye & Gary – Cortona October 2008

Hi Rossana,

Thank you for all you have done. it was excellent, We are in Florence now and enjoying it very much. We've visited a few places already such as Siena but in our hearts truly Cortona was the best place. We wish we had taken some pictures with you, I struggled somewhat to get the vows out but it was all good. Again it was very very good and truly something that will remain with us forever, grazie!!

Best wishes,
Gary & Gaye

Niamh & Robert - San Gimignano September 2008

Hi Rossana,

We hope you are well.

We would like to say a big Thank You for helping us organise our 'Big day'. You were brilliant. We really enjoyed the day and it was everything we wanted it to be. We are now having a great honeymoon in New Zealand. We left some wine for you at the villa with Gianni.

Thanks again and speak to you soon,

Niamh & Robert.

Ava & Brett – Chianti September 2008

Ciao Rossana,

Well we are back home already and looking forward to going on honeymoon tomorrow. We just wanted to say thank you very much for all your assistance and help with our wedding. It all went very smoothly apart from only a few minor things!!!! Everyone was overwhelmed with the beauty of the setting and commented on how well organized it was and the attention to detail of everything! I'm so so so happy that we were able to eat in the courtyard and that we actually had the ceremony inside - that room was just lovely and cosy and very atmospheric with the distant thunder!!!! I think it was much more romantic than it would have ever been in the gardens! It certainly saved my shoes from the mud!!! Thanks once again and I will be sure to email you some photos from the day!

Kind regards,

Ava & Brett

Amanda & Seamus – Chianti September 2008

Hello Rossana

Well we are back in Ireland in the wet weather, sad to have left Italy but we are making plans to return as soon as possible. Thank you again for everything you did for us. Our guests have said it was by far the best wedding they had ever been to. The ceremony and reception were perfect, we couldn’t have asked for anything more. We can’t thank you enough for all you did and all your hard work. We are truly grateful.

Paddy & Annabel – Orvieto June 2008

Sorry for not getting back sooner, as we have not stopped since our return.  I tried to call you today on your mobile but couldn’t leave a message - I hope you are well.

Thank you so much for all your help in making our wedding day so fantastic, we had an amazing day and everything went perfectly (except the rain).  You were a real help in overseeing the day and it went so seamlessly. We had a lovely honeymoon on the island of Salina and then at Ravello (we didnt want to return...).  I would love to catch up, so please call me when you have time to talk.  I attach some photos from the day...

Kind regards and thank you again.

Colum & Rosemarie – Bettona May 2008

Hi Rossana!

Just a short mail from us to say a very big thank you to you and Franco for all your help and kindness to us in helping us to organise our wedding on the 5th May.

We are home a week now from our honeymoon in Sicily and we are finding it very hard to settle back to work and “real life” after our wonderful time in Umbria.  We cannot thank you enough for all your help and patience with us since we met with you last November. We would love to do it all over again! We had a great, great wedding weekend in Umbria and everything was just marvellous…the food, the wine, the flowers, the accommodation, the hair and make up etc. In addition your good humour and kindness to us and our friends and families was just wonderful.

We hope that you are both keeping really well and not too stressed with all the madness that goes with weddings! Wishing you both every success for your futures……be that in Ireland or Italy (?). If you are ever near Limerick or Clare and need a place to stay or anything at all please let us know.

Many thanks for all your help.

Colum and Rosemary

Susan & Uyi – Fiesole June 2007

Congratulations on your engagement!

I got married in a beautiful castle in Tuscany on 18th June and the day was organised perfectly from start to finish.  I found Rossana and her team extremely helpful and efficient throughout. I first met Rossana in January of this year (she was recommended to me by an acquaintance who had used her services) and we went looking at venues around
Tuscany. The first venue we looked at was the one that the acquaintance had used. The second venue was one that Rossana recommended to us - this is the venue that we chose for our wedding.

We also went back to see Rossana in March and to meet the caterer for tastings. Again, she made herself available to us while we were over and gave us lots of good advice on place settings etc.

Our final trip over was for the wedding itself in June. Everything was organised to perfection and the venue was beautifully decorated. The food was delicious also.

The majority of my contact with Ro' was via e-mail. I always received replies within a reasonable amount of time. If she didn't reply I knew it was because she was busy meeting other clients and she always apologised profusely for any delays!!!!

I'd highly recommend using Rossana for your wedding. She'll definitely come up with good advice and solutions for you and your fiance and will tailor your wedding to suit your needs.

Susan & Uyi

Lorna & Seamus – Chianti May 2007

Hi Rossana,

Just wanted to drop you a line back to say thanks for all you did to make our wedding so memorable.

You were an absolute pleasure to deal with and I hope that we didn't cause you too many problems or headaches along the way.

If we ever have any friends thinking about getting married in Italy we will most certainly direct them your way.

Continued success with this career as you most certainly have a flair and touch for weddings.

Thanks,

Seamus & Lorna

Julie & Tim – Todi June 2007

Dearest Rossana,

From the bottom of my heart, Tim & I could not thank you enough. You have become a clear friend and one that we would not want to lose. I only hope that we can show you the same fantastic hospitality that Franco & you showed us both. I wish you both happiness. Thanks you once again for arranging our special day with your faboulous attention to details.

Julie & Tim.

Georgie & Larry- Chianti September 2007

Dear Rosanna,

I just wanted to write you an email to say thank you so much for all your help with organising our wedding last month. It truely was an amazing weekend, beyond our wildest dreams! Thank you for being so patient with everything and calm on the day!

The civil ceremony in Castellina was lovely, really intimate and an amazing venue for it. Please thank the mayoress as she was very sweet too and we were very honoured to be the 3rd couple to get married there since the renovation.

The Saturday was unbelievable. Please be sure thank the string quartet and tenor singer, he was amazing and many people are still talking about his performance now! the ceremony, marquee, food and dj were all perfect and I know it would never have come together without your expertise so many thanks again.

We are still figuring out which photos to chose so I will be sure to get back to you once we have decided.

I hope all is good with you

Best wishes

Georgie and Larry

Heidi –Sorrento – May 2006

Hiedi wrote : My husband and I recommend Rossana and her staff highly without any reservations.  Rossana and her staff helped us to have the wedding and the trip of our dreams.  Rossana helped me to understand all the paperwork that needed to be done and held my hand through it all.  She listened to what we wanted and gave us options for different locations that would fulfill our dream.  She sent us photos of each location and gave us her personal input about the “feel” and romance of each choice.  She helped us with a timeline and after we were disappointed with travel agents here at home she was the one who recommended and booked our hotels, car and drivers and train tickets.  She also had people for us to talk to about sights and other outings in Italy.  We loved all of her choices and felt that she truly listened to what is was that were looking for.  It was a fabulous wedding and a fabulous trip.  We are so thankful that we met Rossana and could not have had the fabulous wedding of our dreams without her.

Thomas & Liz –Todi - May 2006

Hello, Congratulations!

Thomas wrote : My name is Thomas Vela and my wife and I had Ro as a wedding planner for our service in Umbria.  I absolutely loved our wedding.  Rossana is professional, understanding, and very meticulous.  I could not have asked for any more in a wedding.  Our wedding is the envy of all of our friends and family.  We had never even been to Italy, but we took a chance and everything went great.  I can’t imagine a more enchanting and romantic wedding.  And Ro made sure everything went according to plan and was absolutely perfect.  If you have any questions or need more information, please do not hesitate to contact me.  We also have great pictures of our wedding in Todi.  If you are interested we would be happy to show them to you, they are magnificent.  Once again, congratulations!

Michael & Laura - Rome - April 2006.

Cannot believe that all was so well organised and detailed. WeddingsInitaly take care of us from our the arrival to the departure. Eloping in Rome, fantastic experience.... at the beginning we were a little afraid, but when we met Rossana we though she is fantastic and always ready and attentive to our needs. Thanks so much.

Virginia & Lukas - Umbria - Private villa - April 2006.

We had our wedding in a private villa near Orvieto. Organisation was excellent, Rossana & her staff always present, each detail was perfect and everything under control - except the rain :) Thanks so much for all your efforts and support in everything. All our guests where so happy that also the rain made the atmosphere fantastic! Excellent job.

Adrian & Kari - Certaldo - Tuscany March 2006.

Our wedding was a small one. I contacted other agencies that I found and it seemed to me that they were trying to book travel arrangements, the wedding ceremony, flower arrangements, a reception,wedding cake and a full honeymoon package all in one. There were a few that, when I told them I was only interested in assistance with the legal paperwork and town hall reservation, didn't reply to my e-mail because I assume they are in the business of selling large wedding packages and taking a commission. Rossana seemed to be the only one that was up front about her price and would cater to a customer no matter how small or large the wedding. She kept up constant e-mail communication with me and broke the bill down into detailed amounts and I was assured the grand total without any surprise extras before I paid a dime. I can not tell you what a wonderful experience it was and how glad I am that I stumbled across her service....

Christian & Lisa - Todi September 2005.

We had the best day of our lives and our friends and family said it was the best wedding they had ever attended.

We cant thank you enough for all your help.

Thank you very much for the time you spent answering all our questions and giving us valuable advices.
We were impressed by the accuracy of the description of each proposal. Your knowledge of the area was extensive and it was nice to have someone so enthusiastic suggesting wedding locations, describing the differences between locations, as well as advising us how to organise better our wedding day.The high level of services you provided was indeed most refreshing and has convinced us that you genuinely care about customers.

"From start to finish, everything was perfect. Rossana took care of every little detail. We never knew that getting married 4,000 miles away from home could be so easy! We'd recommend Weddings in Umbria to any couple who wants to start the rest of their lives together with a spectacular wedding"
